The story of Hazel

Hazel's mom Harriet from Posh on a Budget reports that Hazel was blessed with weight gain that comes from aging. I think lots of us can relate to that! So Hazel set out to turn her life around by taking the Hill's 10 Week Turnaround Challenge. The miniature schnauzer initially weighed in at 28 pounds, and with a lot of hard work, exercise and a heathy diet she lost a whopping 4 pounds!

Harriet says this about Hazel:

Hazel has been jumping up to greet us like she did when she was a pup. Hazel's energy could be attributed to losing (the weight). When you start out at 28 pounds, losing 4 is a big whoop-di-do. That could be equivalent to you or me losing 18 or so pounds.
